Affordable and Clean Energy: CO2 Emissions, Resilience and Inequality

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable development means building the resilience of both people and the planet. It includes implementing strategies which reduce emissions while also enabling more vulnerable households to transition to clean and affordable energy. This paper examines household CO2 emissions in Ireland to highlight those who emit most and least in key ...

Tracking Post‐Consumer Packaging Plastics With Global Positioning Systems: Pilot Study in Malaysia

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landfilling and the mismanagement of packaging plastic waste pose significant challenges in developing countries, especially in Southeast Asia. There is an empirical gap in plastic waste management data, which is largely handled by informal players despite established municipal solid waste collection systems.

Disentangling contract and law: Legal specificity and contractual governance in public–private partnerships

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This study examines how legal design shapes contractual governance in public–private partnership (PPP). We argue that PPP‐specific laws do not simply strengthen institutional safeguards; by varying in detail, they also alter the flexibility available for project‐level contracting.

Investigation of the Reoxidation and Material Behavior of Directly Reduced Pellets and Fines Under Simulated Rail Transport Conditions

steel research international, EarlyView.
The study investigates the reoxidation behavior of DRI pellets (Midrex and H2‐reduced) under realistic conditions, considering the test parameters of temperature, humidity, storage duration, particle size (including fine fraction), and container geometry. The samples are analyzed based on mass changes.
